About this WorkshopVector art is built from vector graphics, which are images created with mathematical formulas and allow the art to be scaled to any size. The best way to explain it is to show you how it works during this one day workshop. Bring your creative ideas to life with vector apps, used by designers and illustrators who want to create digital graphics, logos, illustrations and typography design. This workshop is designed to get you up and running with the app that fits your purpose and preferred device in just on day. This is a 6-hour Vector Art Fundamentals Workshop is the interactive and hands on way to learn the fundamentals of vector art in your preferred app and device. You will dive head first into the tools and techniques, skill up with exercises and by the end of the day you will be ready to design logos, illustrations and collaborate with other artists in professional projects.

When I first launched Vector Maestros years ago, the word maestro was for the word "teacher" or "instructor" in Spanish. I created a few characters with a karate theme so that the ultimate vector maestro was a teacher and each level of the vector maestro course would have a label/title that reflected their growth. Those characters are now lost to time, but I kept the word Maestro since I believe that there is a story there. The word Maestro is also used for an orchestra conductor and I hadn't found a way to use that idea. Then years later, The Sketchyverse was born during one of my livestreams and a big storyline came together where they were other characters in a big universe. I published a few of these characters and held on tot he story for later. The current crop of Sketchys were created to tell that story AND to populate the Vector Maestros website. The story is coming soon, but below are some of the latest Sketchy characters to fill the website for now! The idea is to have a cool little character to bring attention to the content of the site. But are they too plain? Then Jimmy Flame suggested I make the character an actual orchestra conductor, and then other ideas started to flow so here we are.
The Sketchys for the Vector Maestros website are two types: iconic art history characters and orchestra conductors/maestros. More to come!
What do people use Adobe Illustrator for?
EVERYTHING!!! From logo design to apparel illustrations and even comic books and cartoons like Archer. Adobe Illustrator is ideal because the illustrations are easily scaled to whatever size needed, for whatever the project. As a lifelong pencil artist, Vector illustrations gives me superpowers in drawing digitally and easily changing a line, erasing a line, filling in with color a line.

Explore your creativity and become a Vector Maestro! |
